Tensile and impact strengths of steel fiber reinforced polymer impregnated concrete

1986-11
Yalçin, Nilüfer
Gündüz, Güngör
Ordinary concrete was reinforced by (i) steel fiber, (ii) polymer impregnation, and (iii) by both steel fiber and polymer impregnation. The tensile strength of concrete was increased 2.62 times by steel fiber reinforcement, 5.56 times by polymer impregnation, and 7.52 times by the combined technique. The increase in impact strength for these three cases were 2–3, 7–15, and 9–15 times respectively, over the plain concrete. Polymer loading was increased from 7% to 9.5% by pressure impregnation at 15 atm. Then the tensile strength of the steel fiber reinforced and polymer impregnated concrete was increased by 8.5 times and the impact strength by 12–28 times.

Tensile behavior of post-installed chemical anchors embedded to low strength concrete
YILMAZ, SALİH; Özen, Muhammet Ali; YARDIM, YAVUZ (Elsevier BV, 2013-10-01)
In the scope of this paper, tensile capacities of post-installed chemical anchors embedded to 5.9 and 10.9 MPa concrete blocks are investigated. Pull-out tests are applied to 80 ductile steel bars (S420a). For the anchor diameters, 12, 16 and 20 mm are chosen. On the other hand, 10, 15 and 20 times the bar diameter are selected as free-edge distance and embedment depth for monotonic tensile loading tests. The results indicate that installation of anchors into low-strength concrete with sufficient embedment ...
STRENGTH OF STEEL-FIBER-REINFORCED POLYMER CONCRETE - EFFECT OF IMPREGNATION TECHNIQUE
Gündüz, Güngör; YALCIN, N (Elsevier BV, 1987-01-01)
Ordinary concrete was modified by three different techniques, (i) steel fibre reinforcement, (ii) polymer impregnation, and (iii) by both steel fibre reinforcement and polymer impregnation. Impregnating steel-fibre-reinforced concrete results in combined reinforcing effects. The flexural strength of concrete was increased 1·48 times by steel fibre reinforcement, 5·42 times by polymer impregnation, and 6·3 times by the combined technique. Polymer loading was increased from 7 to 9·5% by pressure impregnation ...
Overlapping Lattice Modeling for concrete fracture simulations using sequentially linear analysis
Aydın, Beyazıt Bestami; Tuncay, Kağan; Binici, Barış (Wiley, 2018-04-01)
Modeling concrete fracture is important in order to uncover accurately the sources of distress which lead to the damage or failure of structures. Many different numerical approaches have been used in the past employing either a smeared or a discrete cracking approach. Those models have difficulty in capturing the local nature of cracking, as well as the direction of crack propagation. Lattice modeling and peridynamics (PD) are some of the more recent nonlocal fracture simulation tools which possess advantag...
TENSILE FATIGUE BEHAVIOR OF TIGHTLY WOVEN CARBON CARBON COMPOSITES
OZTURK, A; MOORE, RE (Elsevier BV, 1992-01-01)
The tensile fatigue behaviour of a tightly woven carbon/carbon composite was investigated as a function of stress level. Load-controlled fatigue tests were performed in tension-tension mode with a stress ratio, R, of 0.1 under ambient laboratory conditions. Results of composite behaviour are discussed in terms of the relationship of the stress/strain behaviour to the fatigue life of these composites as well as the effects of applied stress levels. It is shown that these composites exhibit good resistance to...
Influence of the shape and roughness of inclusions on the rheological properties of a cementitious suspension
Erdoğan, Sinan Turhan; Ferraris, C. F.; Fowler, D. W. (Elsevier BV, 2008-05-01)
The influence of particle shape and surface roughness on the rheological properties of cementitious composites (cement paste plus coarse and fine particles) was investigated for mixtures of mortars and laboratory-made aggregates. The coarse particles were monosized spheres and cubes made from mortar, and monosized glass spheres, uncoated or roughened. The fine particles were uncoated or roughened monosized glass mini-spheres. The coarse particle mixtures were tested with a concrete rheometer to investigate ...
